What supplements are you taking, why and when (which part of cycle)? Right now I'm taking:
-Rainbow light prenatal
-Fish oil
-B6 50mg
-Probiotic
-Royal Jelly
Wondering if I should add anything to my regimen to help with egg health, implantation, etc. Any thoughts? TIA!

Prenatal vitamin w/ folic acid everyday and zinc every other day (or every 2 days). I also take primrose oil up to ovulation which helps with my CM (I don't think I produce a lot) plus Mucinex if I remember. Both of us take fish oil for general health. While not a supplement, we are going to try pre-seed this cycle.

Prenatal (Rainbow light petite) plus a B Complex, because i was spotting a lot before AF and it's supposed to help, plus it's good for energy anyway. I take a calcium+vitamin D gummy and an Omega 3 gummy when I remember (those I was taking before TTC anyway). That's it. I also have reduced my caffeine intake to almost none, but that's more because I was really addicted and didn't want to deal with withdrawal headaches while pregnant, so started early with cutting that back.

I'm only taking folic acid supplements, I'm trying to get the rest from a diet full of fruit and veg. I'd add to your list: Giving up caffeine altogether and drinking lots and lots more water (for the production of CM). I've also heard that fresh pineapple is good for implantation - I don't know if it's true but it's worth a shot!!!

When I was TTC, I was taking prenatals and B6+B12 (to extend my LP). I also did acupuncture which did wonders for regulating my cycles!

Just fish oil (which I've always taken, since pre-ttc), and a prenatal.
Beyond that, I'm working really hard to overhaul my diet to cut out all of the extra/hidden sugar. I'm only two weeks in, but I feel great and am surprisingly not missing all my former snacks at all!
